My Girl

she is clothed in gentleness.  sweetness surrounds her.  my faith. 

she is quiet and shy...until you get to know her.  but that may take awhile.  in a group of children, she seldom makes a sound.  she loves books, puzzles, play-doh, and coloring.  she's silly.  she loves to sing and dance. 

she is super-sensitive, gets her feelings hurt too easily, crys often, and doesn't like to get in trouble.  she is always the first one to apoligize. 

i have said in the past, bryan has a heart for God's word, brookie has a heart for God's people, and faith has a heart for God's creation.  the sun, the moon, the stars, oceans, flowers, animals, sunrises and sunsets...they take her breath away. 

as much as brookie loves to GIVE love, faith loves to BE loved.  you can hug her and hold her all day.  she doesn't mind.  she will sit almost motionless, in your lap for an entire movie.  or snuggle with you in bed all morning.  her precious fingers hold my hand everywhere we go. 
sweetness.  

she chooses comfort over fashion, much to brookie's displeasure.  i'll confess, i think i did this to her.  maybe dressing her in her jammies everyday for the first 2 years of her life had some negitive side-effects.  (yes, i actually did that.)  in fact, it wouldn't suprise me if she wore jammies on her wedding day.  why didn't i think of that?  

maybe i can persuede her to at least wear a pair of running shoes.  :)
